Death of a Combine Confirms Collapse of American Harvester
President McCormick announces to the Associated Press that the American Harvester Company, formed to create a vast industrial trust, must abandon the undertaking after legal obstacles. The plan called for a $50 million capital with $35 million in stock and $15 million in bonds, but banks and other financiers refused to fund, citing trust and restraint laws. Internal dissent among member firms and a retreat by key companies doomed the consolidation, leaving the field to cutthroat competition and higher prices for farmers.
